This is the online studio lab of Lise Patt and her avatars. It was constructed as an extension of her studio and not as a show-and-tell gallery. Those seeking artworks will see instead the work of art as it is brought to form through the processes of an artist. The virtual space of the Internet has extended the boundaries of Patt’s studio.

The page titled IN OTHER WORDS is intended as a filing cabinet for the institutionalized forms that describe an artist’s oeuvre. Given that Patt’s life as an artist has been focused on questioning the institutions that rule art (and given that she often undertakes these challenges in the role of the “trickster”), it is advised that those looking for any vestiges of “truth,” steer clear of this “other words.”
